Renowned Emmy-nominated producer and ASCAP award-winning songwriter Sheree Brown is set to release her inspiring new single, "Beautiful Girl," on March 8, 2025—International Women’s Day—via Expansion Records. The song is taken from her current vinyl album, Messages From The Spirit (Special Edition), and carries a powerful message of self-love and affirmation for women and girls of all ages.
Featuring Sheree Brown & Nailah Porter, with Sukari Reid-Glen on flute, "Beautiful Girl" was co-written by Sheree Brown and Nailah Porter. The song's journey began over a decade ago when Sheree and Nailah met in a Los Angeles coffee shop, planting the seeds for what would become an anthem of self-worth and empowerment.
"I wanted to collaborate with gifted women from different generations to create a song—an anthem—that affirms girls of all ages, letting them know they are beautiful no matter what. I reached out to Nailah, and later, when recording the song, invited Sukari to be part of this special project." – Sheree Brown
Originally released on the Messages From The Spirit...The Collective album in 2020, "Beautiful Girl" has resurfaced at a time when its message is needed more than ever. With its re-release on International Women’s Day, Sheree aims to continue spreading its uplifting and empowering message. "We were all little girls once, and sometimes, we still need to remind ourselves that we are beautiful."
The Music Video: A Reflection of Generations
Filmed during the pandemic in Sheree Brown’s backyard by Tyler Adams (Imhotep X)—a former member of the children's choir she directed at church—the video beautifully captures the essence of the song’s message. Featuring Sheree’s granddaughters Monroe Jordan and Sage Jordan, her niece Kim Porter, and Nailah Porter's daughter Macie Legaspi, the video reflects the generational impact of self-affirmation.
"The mirror in the video is not only symbolic of the song’s message but also represents my own story. My mother always told me I was beautiful, no matter what. As a young adult, during challenging times, I often stood in front of my mirror and reminded myself: ‘You are beautiful, Sheree.’"
